Something really weird happened today as Space premiered the second episode an hour ago. Sadly it was an eliminatory leg and (not surprisingly) Filippo and Eddy from Venezuela were eliminated. I could watch only the last minutes, I missed the first 4 teams that arrived first (the venezuelan & the brazilian girls, the boys from Mexico/Guatemala and the couple from Uruguay). Teams from 5 to 8 (2 colombian teams, the couple from Argentina and Costa Rica) arrived practically at the same time. They had to run from the taxi left them to the pitstop. While arriving last in the taxi, friends from Argentina easily outran the venezuelan friends avoiding elimination.

So is just starting for me, but in the first commercial, the voice says that "2nd Place Finalist will get $20.000" is that a first? is it always like this? I though it was just the first team at the finish line to get something, and the rest whatever they could get on the previous legs :S

Also, it might be just Space but is this not recorded in HD? It doesn't look great IMO.
